Quick update on lily- she made it through another night with stable critical vitals! She is having a hard time keeping oxygen, so they had to keep the ventilator at 45% oxygen all night. They're having difficulty weaning her from the oxygen, but say that is to be expected.
I looked into both eyes this morning. It was an indescribable feeling. She is such a fighter- I am confident, and trying to stay full of hope and positivity - she is going to make it.
We will be celebrating 3 days of life at 3:58pm. Taking it hour by hour- thank you everyone for the support, well wishes and prayers. I'll provide a more comprehensive update tonight. Running off to Yonkers to rent the last specialty breastmilk pump in the tri-state area, it seems. These things cost 800 bucks so I have to get this rental!!
The blog has had 1700 views in a little over one day. Please keep sharing Lily's story. More shares means more prayers - every one counts.
Update- just got out of NICU. BiCarb has helped stabilize blood acidosity and electrolyte levels are ok. All vitals still in range.
